Just install the game from the CD-ROM / ISO or just unzip the game folder files. Installation from the installer is not mandatory, as no registry key is needed anymore.
If you already have the game installed, this mod will run on its own without modifying any existing files or registry entry.
i.e : you can run again the genuine computer game by running the hod3pc.exe
file directly (or the original game launcher).
Optional : you can download a texture pack from the arcade to fix some bad textures on windows here
Simply unzip the release zip somewhere.
The game will create the needed folders to store game saved data at runtime.

For any advanced needs (multiplayer, lightguns, gamepad, etc....) I highly suggest to use DemulShooter
